This is the rout I'm going as well. It may not be a horsepower beast, but it'll still be quick

yeah i just wanted to get some confirmation

In the Open Tablet thread, it looks like they picked up ~20 from the tune on 91 alone... i'm optimistically hoping for ~50 but before I do any binge shopping on parts I wanted to see if anybody else has gone this route.

Here's my estimate, not sure how off-base it is, so corrections welcome:

Engine: ~2
Perrin crank pulley

Clutch: ~3
Undecided, lightweight street clutch and flywheel

Driveshaft: ~3
DSS or PST carbon fiber driveshaft

Fuel: ~20
e85 and 91 tunes, likely with OpenTablet

Exhaust: ~15
Borla UEL (sound profile, not max HP)
Perrin overpipe
Perrin catted front pipe
Invidia N1 exhaust

Wheels: (maybe)
Undecided, lightweight
